momondo: Flights, Hotels, Cars

What momondo is for and who it suits

momondo: Flights, Hotels, Cars is a travel search app. It runs one search across hundreds of travel sites for flights, hotels, vacation rentals and rental cars, then lets you narrow the results with filters.

It is aimed at people planning trips who want to compare prices and keep their bookings in one place. The listing also points to people with a fixed budget, through a tool called momondo Explore that shows flights you can afford.

Comparing flights across travel sites

A flight search pulls options from hundreds of sites, and filters let you sort them by what matters for the trip. The listing describes this as narrowing down to the best fit rather than a single cheapest price.

Search results can also be limited to mobile-only hotel rates from selected hotels, which the listing says you can only see in the app. Car searches include car sharing services next to traditional rental agencies.

Hotels, vacation rentals and rental cars

Hotel searches cover major chains, resorts, local boutiques, apartments, cabins and beach homes. Filters include pet-friendly stays and free cancellation, so a plan can be changed without a penalty.

Car rental searches cover over 70,000 locations. Car sharing results appear alongside agencies, and the same free cancellation filter applies. Booking itself happens through the sites that list each option.

Price alerts and budget searches

Price Alerts send a notification when the price changes for a saved flight, hotel or car search. The listing says this works on all three types of booking.

The momondo Explore tool shows flight options within a budget you set, such as a limit of $300. Hotel and car rates shown only in the app are part of the same search.

Keeping trip plans and flight changes in one place

Trips collects confirmations, reservations and itinerary items in one list. You can sync your email inbox to fill it, or add items by hand, including tours, restaurant bookings and notes on things to see. Boarding passes can be opened with or without a connection, and an itinerary can be shared with friends.

The flight tracker sends alerts when a gate or flight time changes. It can also follow a flight to show whether you will make a connection. The listing describes these tracker features as available only in the momondo app.

Checking bag size with the phone camera

The bag measuring feature uses the phone camera. Point it at a suitcase or carry-on and it reports whether the bag fits the size limit for your flight. The listing says this check does not charge a fee.
